nice, can't wait to see the finished product!

i didn't know they made DIY powdercoating kits - very cool

 

powdercoating kit is only about $100. the problem is, you need a dedicated oven and an air source also. for the air source, you could use one of those portable tanks you fill at the gas station though, as it only uses 7psi air.

 

more pics at the link now.

 

Man, that's pretty cool. Can you DIY your own rims too? BTW, why do you have your own dedicated oven and how long do you have to bake them for?

 

You need a dedicated oven because there is some volatility in the powders as they cure and it would contaminate food if used for both. My oven will fit an 18" wheel, maybe even a 19. They bake at 400 for about 25 minutes.

 

very cool!

 

incredible... post pics when you're finished!

btw - does the $100 price include the powder? or just the tools

 

$100 includes black powder. for 129 you get a kit with 2 additional powders plus wire for hanging, hi=temp masking tape and a few other things. Plus you need a dedictated oven, which can run you anywhere from $50 to $200. mine was 175, but its big.

 

How'd you get the logo's back on there?

Sticker replacement from brembo?

 

high temp engine spray paint and a stencil from here: http://shop.store.yahoo.com/eagleday/brcapaki.html
thats why I just have the B logo on the rears, they don't make a small enough stencil for it.

Oh wow. Very nice!
Can you powercoat turbo/supercharger housings and pipings?

$$$$$$

 

I can powdercoat any metal smaller than 18x20x15 or so. As long as there were no seals or plastic/rubber parts to get messed up, it is fairly easy. If you are serious, I wouldn't charge a whole lot, because its pretty fun work!

 

the finished product looks amazing...

it too bad you live in atlanta... i have a whole list of things i'd like to have powdercoated (calipers, winter rims, lug nuts etc.)

... anyone local, jump on this deal!

 

Hmmm. May have to pay u a visit before the get together in December.

 

bring it on!!!!
